Connecting mobility, waste management and other public services

On 25 May, representatives of Kruševac in Serbia, Ms. Jelena Nikolić, Ms. Jelena Brković, and an expert Dr. Haris Piplas met virtually to discuss multi-faceted project being developed for the city of Kruševac. Project connects mobility, waste management and other public services and entails measures such as:

• introduction of integrated ticketing system (can be used for several public services, such as public transport, library, sport services, reduction of bills for waste collection, donation for greenery etc.)
• development of the app for integral services
• Installation of the equipment that pays for the received plastics bottles

Rationale of the project is to reduce plastic waste in the city and integrate the recycling habit into everyday lives of the citizens. Since public transport is an indispensable feature, accumulating thousands of users, redesigning it into a smart solution of the problem can lead to better adaptability and results when shifting to waste reduction processes.
